Madonna and Guy Ritchie will announce their divorce, says new reports. A Madonna Guy Ritchie divorce rumor hit June this year. But late tonight a new report claims exclusively that the Guy Richie Madonna divorce will happen, and this year.

Back in June, LALATE told you of multiple reports that Madonna and Guy Ritchie were divorcing. Those reports were subsequently denied by reps for the couple and Liz Rosenberg. Now today, the Sun is reportedly exclusively, with great detail, that the divorce allegedly will happen, and more importantly, explains allegedly why.

The Sun claims that Madonna and Guy Ritchie did try to work it out this year but it didn’t work.

“Despite huge attempts to patch things up they both knew deep down that divorce was on the cards. It wasn’t a matter of ‘if’ but ‘when’. They tried hard over the last few months but their fighting was getting out of control.”

The report claims that “Madonna wanted a highly stage-managed separation, with their split being announced when it was convenient for her. She didn’t want the distraction while she is trying to concentrate on her tour.

“Pals say Madge, 50, initially wanted to wait until next year to announce their separation — after her Sticky and Sweet global tour is finished. But now she and Brit movie director Guy, 40, want a divorce finalised before Christmas — which would have seen the eighth anniversary of their fairytale wedding in a Scottish castle.”

The report October 15th adds “Last night a spokeswoman for Madonna declined to comment.”

No word if the report sought response from Rosenberg.

You decide.
